Adapter for 7-Way or 6-Way to Plug Into 4-Way on Vehicle Being Flat Towed
Question:
Do you have an electrical plug that one end fits in the standard bobtail tractor and the the other end would have a normal 4 way flat that I can attach to my tow car? Any help is appreciated. I want to be able to tow my car behind a bobtail truck to be delivered. I have the special hitch, but need to hook up lights to my tow car which is set up with a four way flat. Thank you

I'm sure we have what you need but I'm not certain exactly what trailer connector you have on your Bobtail truck. It looks like there are a number of potential options for the type of connector you might have, so what I can do is give you the options for an adapter so you can choose the right one.
